Memories of Lance Corporal Vic Cole, 1st Queen's Own (Royal West Kent Regiment).
"From the interior of the pillbox our Colonel emerged. His name was Twisleton-Wyckeman-Fiennes (Sic), a wiry grey-faced figure. He was very agitated and was waving his Colt .45 revolver around. Spying me, and practically sticking his revolver in my face, he gave me an order. 'Corporal get hold of these men and take them up to the next line of pillboxes'."
